Kevin Moore explains how Dart and Flutter leverage WebAssembly Garbage Collection to deliver high-performance web applications.

Wasm I/O 2023 / 23-24 March, Barcelona Slides: docs.google.com/presentation/d/1k-jxutQx0sqy7mW4Wg06Y3JmXLQC… Support for garbage collection within WebAssembly (WASM-GC) will bring a host of new languages and frameworks to the web app space. Learn how the Dart and Flutter teams at Google are building on WASM-GC (among other upcoming standards) to bring richer, faster, more consistent applications to the web Until now, WASM-compiled browser applications have been mostly limited to systems programming languages – allowing a number of traditionally desktop experiences to run on the web. (Think AutoCad, PhotoShop, Google Earth.) The implementation of WASM-GC across WASM runtimes will bring a set of new languages and frameworks to an ecosystem dominated by C/C++ and Rust. The open source Dart and Flutter projects at Google have spent over a year adding WebAssembly as a target platform with the hope of improving application load time and interactive performance for Flutter experiences on the web. This talk will cover how WASM-GC expands the WASM ecosystem, some details on how Flutter and Dart approached migrating our existing JS-compiled web support to WebAssembly, and our hopes for a ecosystem that embraces WASM-GC across the browser and server to enable a more portable, secure, and interoperable future of computer systems.

Flutter + WASM + Talks + Alternatives Last month there was a conference on WASM, where Kevin Moore also gave a presentation on Flutter. You can find the -> videos of the presentations on YouTube, but not the one by Kevin Moore. Perhaps it is similar enough to the lecture of the same name from 2023, -> which I will link here. Google claims to be doing a lot of work on WASM and no less than three people named "Thomas" are working on it, they jokingly explained in their talk. Jetbrains showed the current state with Kotlin/Wasm. Like with Flutter, they have a working prototype using Compose Multiplatform, also using Skia (CanvasKit) as the rendering engine. But they also support to compi…
